Have you had this happen? I’d be pretty interested in a gen2 with a solution for the spring.

I haven’t had this happen and have not observed the compression spring being moved

You need 4oz buffer and M16 BCG too.
That is an extra 200 coins.
400 coins for the giggle switch alone.
It is a drop-in one piece trigger group.

Fortunately for me, I have a LOT of ammo, lowers, tools, F/A BCGs(truth is, almost all BCGs are "full auto" supportable, etc from my FFL business, so my only cost was the FRT.

Boy, looks like I missed out on a great opportunity

You would be surprised how many people asked me to order extra triggers and sell to them anonymously.

Im sure that could be a lucrative business for someone, but not me.

Amd if the ATF decides I should turn it in, well...there’s always plan B.

I had the opportunity to install a https://www.rarebreedtriggers.com/ on my Noveske rifle a few weeks ago, and finally tried it out yesterday.

For those of you unfamiliar, the trigger is a "forced reset trigger" (imagine a bump stock, moved entirely into the trigger assembly). It resets the trigger using a clever mechanism behind the trigger that is actuated as the bolt cycles.

Here's my review: Wow.

Longer review: I've fired F/A before, both in the military and afterwards. It's really not a desirable way to fire an AR-15, all things considered, as you get rapid muzzle rise. This was no different. Perhaps more importantly, the manufacturer points out that it's really only a semi-auto with an instant reset, so you can fire semi by squeezing once and letting off the trigger. I was not successful getting off single shots. The best I was getting was triple and quad shots. Maybe it's because I'm getting "old" now, but I just wasn't able to get off the trigger for a single shot no matter how I tried (admittedly, I didn't try hard -- I was having too much fun ). The Rare Breed Trigger is expensive, but only about 2x the cost of a high-end trigger like from CMC.

I loved shooting this, but I know it will be taken to the range rarely now. Unless I have a more reliable way to control the muzzle rise, this rifle is more of a novelty than a useful weapon. Of course, your opinion may differ on the usefulness of converting an AR-15 to legally shoot what appears to be full-auto.

One last comment: This is NOT a "DIY" drop-in installation(although it appears so). Reliable F/A also requires attention to the buffer system and the gas impingement, and I generally do not advise you put this in a "bargain brand" rifle. If you get one, my advice is to have a gunsmith install and test it.

Have fun!
